作品名称：御光 Title: Sovereign Light 《御光》以“她无需被拯救，因为她本身就是光”为理念，融合东方美学与西方骑士精神，塑造一个优雅而有力量的女性形象。 作品由一条带有旗袍元素的皮革长裙与骑士臂甲构成，采用雾蜡皮工艺，呈现出柔润却坚挺的质地与随光而动的微妙光泽，象征女性外柔内刚、静而有力的特质。整体结构融合东方线条与西式剪裁，以金属铆钉点缀，营造出力量与精致并存的视觉语言。 臂甲灵感源自中世纪骑士，寓意女性主动披甲、自我守护。深色皮革搭配金属点缀，营造神秘而尊贵的氛围，诠释她不等待守护，而是成为照亮世界的光。 “Sovereign Light” draws from the idea that a woman needs no savior—she is the light herself. Merging Eastern aesthetics and Western knightly form, this piece embodies elegance and strength. The design features a long leather dress with cheongsam elements and a single armor-style arm guard. Crafted with nubuck waxed leather (fog-wax leather), the material offers both structure and a subtle shifting sheen—symbolizing the quiet resilience and inner glow of womanhood. The silhouette blends Eastern fluidity with Western volume, accentuated by metal studs and details. The arm guard, inspired by medieval armor, reflects a woman’s choice to guard herself with dignity and grace. Dark leather paired with metallic accents creates a mysterious, sovereign tone, celebrating women who walk not in search of light, but as the light itself.

设计说明：本设计用皮革做出大廓形想表达一个巨大的笼子；通身采用了黑色 黑色代表着恐惧与未知，通常代表负面含义，加了金属元素增强了对比度，柔软的皮革和坚硬的金属搭配让整体质感上增添了一些不一样的感觉 设计的寓意：像这次比赛主题所说我们一直都在寻找“真自我” 但是由于现实的种种原因我们会被困在无形的“笼子”里。这个笼子，面具是一种束缚也是一种保护自我的方式。故本设计表达的是希望我们可以打破无形的束缚，不在被外界定义，接纳一切不完美的自己，走出无形的笼子。 Design description：This design is made of leather to express a huge cage; black throughout the body represents fear and unknown, usually negative meaning, plus metal elements to enhance the contrast, soft leather and hard metal combination to add some different feelings to the overall texture. Moral of Design: As the theme of this competition says, we are always looking for our "true selves" but we are trapped in invisible cages for a variety of practical reasons.The cage, the mask is a bondage and a way to protect yourself.Therefore, this design expresses the hope that we can break the invisible bondage, not be defined by the outside world, accept all imperfections of ourselves, and get out of the invisible cage. 我的主题名字叫“笼”是回笼觉的笼也是笼子的笼而且2024是“笼”年。这次的主题叫真皮真自我，我认为每个人这一生都被困在看不见的笼子当中带着面具 困在被别人定义的笼子里面 一直都在寻找自我，其实很多人都有两幅面孔 可以是善也可以是恶可能也只是一念之差。希望我们都不要被外界所定义不再被困住可以完全的去接纳自己的所有面，无论是哪一面都是真正的自己。 我常常会做梦，在我的成长当中有很多时间都在睡觉 所以“梦”是必不可少的存在。有的时候半睡半醒的会睡回笼觉梦里面常常出现“恶”一些这辈子都忘不掉的痛苦和体现内心深处的阴暗面的梦境。也会梦到甚至不想醒来的甜蜜的梦。每一个都让我觉得很有趣我很爱这样爱做梦的自己！也一直在寻找自我，去寻找真正的自己去接纳。这次比赛的材料是真皮 我们每个人穿着从别的动物身上得到的皮肤来盖住自己的皮肤这是恶？还是善。穿着不属于自己的皮肤又是一个新的面具。难道这也是一场梦？ My theme name is "笼" It can be called cage or return to one's senses （回“笼”觉）and 2024 is "笼（龙）" year.This time, it's called the dermal self, and I think everyone's been trapped in an invisible cage with a mask, trapped in a cage defined by others, always looking for themselves, and many people have two faces, good or evil.I hope that we will not be defined by the outside world and will no longer be trapped in the complete acceptance of all aspects of ourselves, regardless of which side is our true self. I often dream, and I spend a lot of time growing up sleeping, so "dreaming" is essential.Sometimes half asleep will sleep back to the cage dreams often appear "evil" some of the pain that will not be forgotten in this life and reflect the dark side of the dream.I also dream sweet dreams that I don't even want to wake up.Each one makes me feel very interesting I love so much to dream of myself!They are also looking for their true selves to accept.The material for this competition is real leather, and each of us wears the skin we get from other animals to cover our own skin. Is that evil?or angel. Wearing skin that doesn't belong to you It's also a new mask, a new cage..or..Is this also a dream?
